Coral Bleach recites ‘Our Profits” (full poem below) at a recent IPA gala: “Billionaires are sadly groaning from Coal Investile DysfunctionThis vile contagion is spreading around the globe, an epidemic out of control…”

Do you have what it takes to win ClimActs’ Coal Poems for Christmas Competition inspired by the universe’s worst poem (so far)?

‘An Illustrated Treasury of Gina Rinehart’ by First Dog on the Moon 🐾

Criteria: in 150 words or less, poetically (and satirically) serenade ordinary folk about the virtues of fossil fuels and mining through the eyes of a Billionaire miner! For instance, what it feels like to be given billions of taxpayers’ dollars to help you get richer through projects that destroy invaluable public assets, threaten food bowls and water reserves.

Scenes from our recent IPA Coalabration Poetry Slam and JP Sears’ courageous efforts to speak up for ‘the group of people who have been the most mistreated, oppressed, disrespected and cheated by the government – oil companies!’ may help provide some inspiration for your masterpiece!

And who couldn’t fail to see The Juice Media’s logic in handing a foreign billionaire coal miner a billion dollars of taxpayers money to help Australia on its way to giant quarry, most polluting nation status, Great Barrier Reef or Not!

Disclaimer: in exchange for incalculable therapeutic benefits to be derived, we reserve the right to 1) select as many winners as suits our agenda, and 2) to use your poems in future ClimActs direct action poetry slams, and/or 3) to use sophisticated psychological persuasion techniques to encourage you to humorously and non-violently deliver your poem(s) to Billionaires and/or their foot soldiers in business, government and politics.

Our Profits

Billionaires are sadly groaning from Coal Investile Dysfunction

This vile contagion is spreading around the globe, an epidemic out of control

Billions in our rightful profits are threatened as our visa workers are left to ponder
